Chapter 4
Chapter Four
The forestry department learned the following from the information provided by the system:
The world we are currently in is called Tianji Planet. Compared to Earth, its overall shape is somewhat square and not as round.
The planet Tianji has a diameter of approximately 30,000 kilometers, and the recorded history of human existence is about 5,000 years.
The course of human development shares certain similarities with the course of human development recorded in Chinese history.
For example, the country where Lin Mu is currently located is called Jinling Kingdom, which is similar to a feudal dynasty in Chinese history.
However, unlike the development of the Chinese people, the Tianji Star people, while constantly moving forward, accidentally developed a path of martial arts cultivation.
Upon seeing this, Lin Mu recalled the martial arts novels, TV series, movies, and anime he used to stay up all night reading.
It turns out there really is a world that makes all of this a reality, but it's a different world from Earth.
The cultivation of martial arts on Tianji Star is roughly divided into the following realms:
First level: Data set level
Second layer: Computation level
Third level: Statistical level
Fourth layer: Geometric level
Fifth level: Function level
When Lin Mu saw the classification of martial arts, he was initially excited, but after learning more about it, he became numb, and the number of comments on the screen skyrocketed.
"What's this!!!"
"Mathematics, this is not the familiar mathematics!"
"It's true that math is indispensable everywhere!"
"Master math, physics, and chemistry, and you'll be able to go anywhere in the world without fear! Why not just study physics and chemistry?!"
"Judging from this state, there should be no upper limit to martial arts, because mathematics itself has no upper limit!!!"
"Who came up with this?!"
"So clever, hehehe!"
"Mumu, although it's categorized this way, it shouldn't be related to the actual mathematical content you're talking about," the system explained.
Although the system was also speechless, what could it do when it discovered that the person who integrated the martial arts training system was a math dunce!
Although the cat doesn't understand why a math-challenged person would use a math-related name, perhaps this is what humans call a love-hate relationship where they torment each other!
"You mean the people who rank martial arts, like me, also come from Earth?" Lin Mu asked.
Is there really such a coincidence in the world?
"It may not necessarily originate from Earth, but it is very likely from a planet with a similar development process to Earth, or a parallel universe of Earth, etc. There are too many possibilities to determine at the moment," the system analyzed.
"Don't your internal records contain detailed information about this world?" Given the system's current capabilities, there should be detailed records of Tianji Star.
"Of course there are, but it's top secret and requires points to redeem. You need a lot of points to redeem it." Cat's eyes lit up as she suddenly thought of something.
"Mumu, Linmu, Linmumu, Host, would you like to buy? The installment payment interest is very low, and you can pay in many, many installments. The points paid in each installment are very, very few." The cat continued its sales pitch, its voice becoming cute, soft, and sweet, making it easy for people to lower their guard.
"How many installments? How will it be divided?" Lin Mu asked curiously.
"It will be paid in 1200 installments, monthly, with 1000 points per month, and the points will be returned at the beginning of each month." Cat brought up the data panel.
"Forget it, I refuse! Besides, I don't even know if I can live to be a hundred years old." Lin Mu thought, "Humans in this world are quite long-lived, actually able to extend the loan term to a hundred years. Thirty years and a hundred years are incomparable."
"Ordinary people would find it difficult to live to be a hundred years old, but you are different, host. You can cultivate, and I believe you will soon achieve success in your cultivation. You will absolutely, absolutely not die young!"
"Are you really not going to consider it?" The cat's eyes were pitiful and watery, and anyone with weak self-control would definitely nod in agreement.
"I'll consider it later, but not for now!" Lin Mu couldn't bear to reject a cat outright, so he could only leave the cat with a little bit of hope, a situation commonly known as "drawing a picture of a cake to satisfy hunger."
"Mumu, you're so kind! I'll wait for you then." The cat smiled, still holding onto hope.
After reviewing some basic information, Lin Mu began to look up top-grade martial arts manuals.
The cover of the top-grade martial arts manual features the four large characters "Real Analysis".
Then the forest started again.
"This guy is a math failure! He's already studying real analysis, and you still call him a math failure!"
"Real analysis, you won't understand it even if you study it ten times."
"Why isn't it called complex function? I still can't learn it no matter how many times I try!"
Lin Mu was speechless. He was certain that this person was a Chinese from Blue Star.
After Lin Mu opened "Real Analysis", she was fortunate that the content was not actually about functions, otherwise she really wouldn't know how to integrate mathematics and martial arts training.
"Mumu, how come you're so familiar with math?" The system suddenly had a bad feeling.
"My undergraduate major was called: Mathematics and Applied Mathematics." Lin Mu recalled the nights he stayed up, the tears he shed, and the hair he lost because of mathematics—memories from a long time ago.
"You're so amazing!" The cat looked at Lin Mu with starry eyes, full of admiration.
General principles of real variable functions: Between heaven and earth, there exists an invisible energy—spiritual energy. When humans breathe, spiritual energy enters the body, which can improve physical condition and facilitate cultivation. After entering the body, spiritual energy is continuously compressed and purified, and then released, which can then be used for fighting.
Chapter 1: Initiating the flow of spiritual energy into the body, sensing and absorbing it with each breath.
Chapter Two: After spiritual energy enters the body, it is guided to the dantian, compressed, and repeated. After accumulation, the cultivation level can be increased.
Chapter 3: Spiritual energy is stored in the dantian and then released. The higher the purity, the stronger the attack and the greater the destructive power.
Chapter Four: The path of martial arts is endless. Future generations may attempt to create their own, but please be careful and do not risk your life for the sake of cultivation!
In conclusion: If future generations see this manual and achieve success in its cultivation, that is our destiny. But destiny is a mysterious thing and cannot be forced!
Also included is an appendix: "Eighteen Skills of Real Analysis".
"Are you sure this is a top-grade martial arts manual? Top-grade?" Lin Mu was currently skeptical about the book's ranking.
"Yes, so many martial arts manuals have been lost to history over time, but this one has survived countless years! It has been ranked number one in every dynasty!" Cat said with a little bit of guilt.
"Moreover, there are various versions on the market, but the one provided by the system is the original and most authoritative version!"
"Moreover, no matter how many years have passed, this manual has still been passed down, which proves that it can withstand the test of time." The more the cat explained, the more confident it became.
"So it's a top-grade martial arts manual!" the system cat concluded decisively, nodding its head as it spoke.
"Alright, I'll give it a try!" Lin Mu felt that there was a saying that made a lot of sense: time is merciless. The fact that it has survived to this day and has not been lost means that it must have something of value!
"Can I cultivate here?" In most of the novels Lin Mu had read, the protagonist was given a space to cultivate.
These spaces are like a cheat code, with many functions such as doubling time and planting herbs. My own system should also have similar functions.
"Uh, uh, uh, currently the level 0 system does not have this function. Only the level 1 system and above can purchase this function with points," Cat explained.
"So what functions does the system have?" Lin Mu asked.
"The Substitute function can create a replica of a forest, but each effect only lasts for two hours. If you want to extend the duration, please use points to purchase it!" Cat recommends function one.
"Map monitoring function: wherever the host sets foot, the system can quickly generate a permanent map." Cat recommends feature two.
"There are also various other features yet to be developed, which will be further unlocked as the system is upgraded!" Lin Mu was delighted with the promise made by the Cat System.
"The substitute function, so if I hide away to cultivate, I can have a substitute appear in front of people in my place, is that what you mean?" Lin Mu thought this function was pretty good, and he could use it when appropriate.
"Because the system is currently only at level 0, the replicated trees are rather dull, and there will be some side effects when they appear in front of people," the system cat further explained.
Lin Mu thought that this tongue twister was quite good!
Lin Mu is rather numb!
"The side effect is that people will treat you like an idiot," Lin Mu replied numbly.
"However, as the system upgrades, the substitute function will become more complete. If the system is not upgraded, you can also improve the substitute function through points." The system cat did not miss any opportunity to promote itself.
"System, how much commission do you get for your points?" Lin Mu was really curious. How much commission could he get from promoting such an adorable system cat over and over again?
"Three percent." The cat belatedly covered its mouth.
"When you have more points later, I'll spend more money so you can negotiate with the points management department to increase your share." Lin Mu's ability to make empty promises has improved dramatically.
"Mumu, you are really good!" The cat said that it had never met such a good host before, even though this was its first host.
Lin Mu thought for a moment and decided that apart from the time he had to be present for eating, sleeping and other things every day, he would spend the rest of his time studying and cultivating like crazy to slowly accumulate strength.
After all, strength is the most reliable thing. As for accumulating strength outside of one's own cultivation, it's still too small at the moment, so let's plan for the long term.
